“It’s a privilege for us to be able to welcome a player of Pedro’s quality to the Roma family,” stated Roma CEO Guido Fienga. Pedro spent the last five seasons at Chelsea, helping the club to win the Premier League, FA Cup, and Europa League during that span.
Rodriguez started his senior career at Barcelona FC, where he won the treble twice and the Champions League three times, scoring in 2011 final.
Roma finished fifth in Serie A last season with the new campaign due to get underway on September 19.
